No DMs The Democratic Party is not the enemy. Authoritarian Broligarchy is. Stay focused. Sometimes I give up hoping and then I rally- usually after reading a Blue Sky post. Thank you.

Well a person can still save on that and lots of other things AND elect people against corp real estate gouging nationally and rethink how vacant 2nd properties are taxed, both commercial and residential and bring strong fed 1st time home buyer loans.

Platner: No one cares that you pretend to be remorseful as you sell out to lobbyists. Symbolic opposition does not reopen hospitals. Weak condemnations do not bring back Roe V Wade. Maine deserves better than Susan Collins.

The problem isn’t refugees on boats. The problem is oligarchs hoarding obscene amounts of wealth while most people fight to stay afloat. Wages aren't tied to inflation, so the working class keeps falling behind no matter how hard they work.

We could mandate and invest- as a country, modern waste and water reclamation systems. We have the tech right now to convert even black water into safe drinking water. Think of the jobs and the health benefits, precious resource conservation. It’s a trifecta win. Those in corp pockets hold us back.

Wages of unionized workers are 13% higher than their nonunion counterparts. But unions also set a higher pay standard that all workers enjoy. In high-union-density states, median household income is $12,000 higher than in low-union-density states. This is why unions are vital.

Our 40 hr work week is from the 1940 labor act. What if min wage was $20. What if we had more, stronger unions so CEO salaries wouldn’t grow 600% while others grow around 20% (I’m rounding a lot here/but you get my drift). What if work days/weeks were shorter. These are not radical ideas. #WakeUp

It wasn’t until 1938—more than a half century after the Haymarket Riot and the national strikes for eight-hour workdays—when Congress passed the Fair Labor Standards Act, which limited the workweek to 44 hours, and then amended the law two years later to 40 hours.

I suspect these shooters and society would’ve benefited from early medical intervention that just naturally included the mind (head to toe), but we don’t have that. Anti depressants and sane gun laws can go a long way.
